AI Reviewer Template: Changelog Review

A reviewer for product and engineering teams that publish changelogs, release notes, and update summaries. This template evaluates entry clarity and readability, technical detail appropriateness, user impact communication, categorisation and organisation, and format consistency across entries. Changelogs serve both technical and non-technical audiences and need to communicate what changed, why it matters, and what users should do about it. The reviewer catches common changelog problems like entries that are too technical for end users or too vague for developers, missing migration or action-required information, inconsistent categorisation of changes (features, fixes, improvements, breaking changes), entries that describe implementation details instead of user impact, and formatting inconsistencies that make the changelog hard to scan.
